Looks like you have a very versatile machine there,  it certainly seems to be doing a decent job even though its not really designed for that kind of work :)

yes we are limited in RPM i.e. spindle . I have machined the similar parts on wood ;)
Thats indeed a sturdy machine. Now we need special bits for milling Aluminum.

Some more pictures

I've seen your router. It's a MDF machine. Not only it's made to cut MDF, it's also made of MDF :). Cutting Aluminium on it is good achievement.

This one looks like the ER-40 collet holder I sent to you. Did you install it with adapter sleeve in your machine?

@Hood: Thank you but all credit goes to Zafar Salam.

@ Zafar Bhae.. This machine is your converted Radial Drill Machine. ;)  I shall soon post some more picture as the milling on the Radial drill is now in progress.

Khalid,
Send a sample G-code file which you use for drilling. I'll modify the drilling wizzard according to it and send it back to you.

Hi ,
Some finish product out of CNC machine. We have some chattering issues on the edges but overall the quality is good.

Impressive work. Good productivity. Have you trained more operators for the machine yet or Mustafa is the only one operating it.

Khalid,
 have you tried doing a finish pass to get rid of that chatter, maybe something like 0.2 or 0.5 left for a finish pass on the profile will allow it to give you a nice clean finish.

Hood thank you for the suggestion. The clamping was very poor. However, i have to left some stock to do final finish machining. Thanks Hood for the great tip. I shall remember whenever i do Aluminum or any other material machining again.
